[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1906004, member: 56379"] I think technically it is possible (with the right combination of computer model vintages). Unfortunately I think a 2007 iMac is too old to be able to be used as an external monitor. Please check out this Apple document for more details::) [URL unfurl="true"]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204592[/URL] Nick p.s. On the positive side...something like a 22" monitor (if you shop around or find a good deal)...is possible to purchase for under $100. Of course if it were me...I'd be shopping for a 27" monitor (2560 x 1440 resolution)...for about $250 (shop around). Way more screen real estate than a 2007 iMac!:) [/QUOTE]
